subieman Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 Does anyone see a problem with this? I know the diameter is a bit larger on the FWD axles then the AWD. The car is a 90 FWD auto sedan. Funny thing is I have FWD axles on my AWD 5 speed legacy with no problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Legacy777 Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 They'll fit just fine. I don't know if there's any issues as far as power and such is concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setright Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 The AWD axles has a smaller diameter, and will not stand up to the torque in the long run. It will break "prematurely". Also, if replacing only one side, the difference in rotational mass will cause "torque steer". Gas it and it will pull to one side, let off and it will pull to the other side.

Legacy777 Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 I don't know if I'd say they "would" fail prematurely.....but you may issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
